In order to achieve the purpose, the invention adopts the following technical scheme: a mechanical arm path planning method for a transformer substation operation robot is characterized by comprising the following steps:
s1: constructing a three-dimensional map of the transformer substation, and planning a routing inspection path of a mechanical arm;
s2: acquiring the current state of a transformer substation switch cabinet, and determining the target of switching operation;
s3: acquiring a three-dimensional coordinate point cloud of a target of switching operation by using a depth camera;
s4: accurately positioning the pose of the target of the switching operation according to the three-dimensional coordinate point cloud obtained in the step S3 by combining a three-dimensional point cloud target extraction algorithm;
